    red32 You talkin' to me?

    I like the way he pulls his handbrake on...

    Daaamn. Wouldn't be happy.

    I think he might have done some damage to the engine as I don't think he quite turned it off in time - yes he was quick but I don't think quick enough.

    Interesting to note there was no barrier there.

    Awesome looking venue too. I wish we had something like that over here. :( ...where is Darlington Park?

    story has it that the car is fine just a bit "dirty" couple of days to dry it out.

    read that on another forum.

    Looks like compression lock-up Doug

    Now where is that clutch again?

    Looks more to me like lift off oversteer that wasn't caught.

    I seriously doubt it would be compression lockup - especially considering its mid/end of the corner. If it was compression lockup the nose would push wide rather than the a$$ end going its on way - being FWD.
